Answer:
262 and 263 are consecutive natural numbers whose sum is 525.
Step-by-step explanation:
Natural number are a subset of real numbers consisting in positive integers (i.e. 1, 2, 3, 525) and two natural numbers are consecutive when distance between each other is equal to 1. (
,
) We can interpret the statement mathematically by means of the following expression:



Where
,
,
.
This system is reduced to a single equation and solved afterwards:




Now we evaluate
and
to obtain the natural numbers:


262 and 263 are consecutive natural numbers whose sum is 525.
First no. = x
Second no. = y
Equation Formation
x + y = 6..........equation(i)
x - y = 10...........equation (ii)
x = 6 - y
6 - y - y = 10
6 - 2 y = 10
-2 y = 10 -6
-2 y = 4
y = -2
x = 6 + 2
x = 8
Answer = 8 , -2
